JimF, what would cause the emission control system adaptation to go beyond the limit? I would rather get it back in limit (if that's reasonable) than to change that chip to accept a wider range (which is what I understand it would do).
Oh, I assume I'm doing no damage driving the car.
Many, many thanks. -- Greg

Yes, you could replace the MAF and that probably will add a few points (ie, raise it abit) to the S/A number and, while you're replacing, do the O2 sensor. Both 'fixes' are not cheap but the MAF is the expensive item.
The MB dealer fix for your problem is replace your fuel computer module, so if that's their solution, my is EXACTLY the same, except it's much cheaper but it does the same thing b/c it's the eprom that's in the new F/C module.
Leaving the way it is will do not damage but if you have to SMOG your car, it won't pass w/ DTC#19 present.
